Saint Helices 27, 12" x 9", watercolor, 1992. Artist's collection.

In this version I return to rendering star patterns and am using two distinct configurations. In the uppermost area I am using a random pattern. In the upper central area I am using a more structured pattern based on an elliptical plan. The ellipses themselves are in the form of nebula. The edge forms portray the element of reflected color from a local light source.
